White Maypop Passion Flower (Passiflora incarnata ‘Alba’) The rare White Maypop Passion Flower is a native vine to the eastern
United States. The pure white,
fragrant, 2-3” flowers have frilly filaments, accented by ivory-colored stamens, and they
bloom from summer through fall. The flowers are followed by tasty. egg-shaped,
green fruits that ripen to yellow when mature and ready to eat. The woody vine
has three-lobed, dark green leaves and it climbs by tendrils so give it a fence, trellis
or other structure to grow on. It will die back to the ground in cold climates
and often needs extra mulch for winter protection in zone 5. Maypop Passion
Flowers are some of the last perennials to emerge in the spring, so be patient.
